He actually fired Fleck two years ago after the Purdue fiasco, but communicated it so poorly it was announced as an extension and raise.

Hey, they introduced the Olé defense in the second half. That was something new this year!

I'd like an answer to who decided to stop doing what were doing on offense in the 2nd quarter. If it didn't work, so be it. We stopped trying.

fair bit? That's a stretch, but if it makes you feel better, sure. And the Illinois thing is three years in a row with a program that was an actual dumpster fire, not what Fleck inherited at Minnesota.

Like against Bowling Green and Purdue? We got lucky, but for what? Killed the drive regardless

FFS when will he learn to stop going for it on 4th down on the 35

They need to call that both ways

Elijah Spencer's TD was a thing of beauty. Now, don't turtle PJ.

that may be true, but both have never lost to Fleck at this point, with both games last year being in the category of someone really screwed the pooch at Minnesota. I just need to realize that Fleck is the greatest coach on the face of the planet, the players just didn't execute his perfect...

Wow. Really made them work for that one.....

It's early

Yeah, I just heard from a buddy of mine at the game the Iowa offense just got on a bus back to Iowa City. They're giving up after 4 plays.

1) 9.23.23 after 3 quarters: Gophers 31 Northwestern 10 Final Gophers 34 Northwestern 37 Turtling on a Teenage Mutant Ninja level. 2) 11.4.23 Roughly one minute to go in the game, Luke Altimeter, starting QB is injured. 4th and 11 from their own 15 yard line, the backup QB enters the...

Easy Killer. Week 1 is very different than week 4 in college Football. Did Fleck turtle? Yes, he's vey consistent on that. You don't need to pile on with unnecessary and irrelevant comparisons. Fleck is who he's always been. He doesn't have the weakest teams in the P5 to hide his "upside"...

I wonder if JMU's defense had anything to do with that? JMU is a decent team. And as the season unfolds we'll see if NC is a good team having a bad day today, or if we haven't played anybody good yet.

Don't forget to practice the FAKE FAIR CATCH! Only Iowa is stupid enough to repeat the same mistake every year! Pretty sure it was PJ Fleck himself who got flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct two years in a row in this series.......

Twins beat BoSox, still alive for the post season.

Would be a bad look? Indiana, Illinois, Nebraska, Northwestern all may not have better teams than we do, but they have better coaches - something Illinois and Northwestern proved last year. I think Maryland uses fear the turtle. That should be Minnesota fans mantra with our head cheerleader...

If the majority of the money is coming from Iowa, the nod to Iowa makes sense. If you can get the Iowa Faithful to bet on the game as a favorite, and you think the Gophers are the better team, that's why in Vegas they build huge resorts. It's not because people gamble and win. The smart money...

Facts never slow the Flecktites down. I'm waiting for the thread that compares our defense to the 85 Bears. We've had two good games against two very bad teams. We've got two shutouts. Nothing to sneeze at. It's a little early to crown them. Let's see how the next three games pan out. I'm...
